Chapter 982: Assault on Xianbei
"Xianbei and Wuhuan belong to the same origin and ancestor, one stands by Xianbei Mountain, the other stands by Wuhuan Mountain, and the power of Xianbei is much greater. Romance first release with - dream - novel wwwlā
It's just that compared with Wuhuan, the Xianbei split is more thorough, not to mention that the Xianbei in the northwest region defected when Emperor Guanjiahuan was in power, and the Xianbei from the east of Yunzhong in Monan was also split into three tribes.
First, the step is rooted in the tribe, with nearly one million people, according to the Yunzhong and Yanmen areas; The second is the tribe of Kebi that can self-proclaim Shan Yu, with nearly one million and more than one million people, distributed in Daijun, Shanggu and other places.
In addition, there are a number of small tribes under the leadership of the "Eastern Lords" alliance, scattered outside Liaoxi, Youbeiping and Yuyangsai, with the Suli, Mijia and Queji tribes being the most powerful, and they are also self-proclaimed.
Among them, Kebi can be the strongest in the tribe, and Budu Genshan is the most influential in the tribe, and the power of the Xianbei tribe in the east is also not to be underestimated, usually united to act together, and the number of supporters may exceed two million......"
On the way to the Xianbei departments, Gongsun Chan introduced the situation about Xianbei to Yang Rui, but he didn't expect that even though the distance was much farther, Gongsun Chan knew a lot about the situation.
"The first emperor once ordered Xia Yu, the captain of Wuhuan, Tian Yan, the general of the Zhonglang of the Xianbei, and the general Zang Min of the Zhonglang of the Xiongnu, each led more than 10,000 cavalry people, respectively, from Gaoliu, Yunzhong County, and Yanmen County, and attacked Xianbei in three ways.
However, out of more than 2,000 miles, but for Xianbei single in the sandalwood acacia defeated, since then my Han has no leisure to carry out the conquest, fortunately Xianbei single in the sandalwood locust died, after which Xianbei is in a state of division, otherwise it has become a disaster in the north of my Han Dynasty.
Although Zan is not talented, he has the idea of breaking the captivity, so he is more familiar with the situation of the Xianbei ethnic group, but Zan has not been able to catch it, and he only keeps the border area of Youzhou......"
When Yang Rui asked, Gongsun Zhan said with emotion, pointing out the reason why he was so familiar with Xianbei.
And from his words, it is not difficult to see that Gongsun Zhan should indeed have the ideal of begging for the Han Dynasty. It's just that the conditions didn't allow him to do so.
Although Xianbei Shan Yu Tanshihuai died soon, Emperor Ling of the Han Dynasty was indeed absurd, and later fell into the whirlpool of eunuchs, scholars and relatives, so he was unable to extricate himself. Not to mention sending troops to conscript foreigners.
The "first emperor" in Gongsun Zhan's mouth is naturally Emperor Han Ling, when talking about this person, although Gongsun Chan did not express it in his words, Yang Rui noticed the change in his expression, and seemed to be also not interested in this "first emperor".
And Gongsun Zhan's words. also made Yang Rui add a lot of points to his perception, although Yang Rui thought that Gongsun Zhan, as a prince at this time, should have lost his former ideals.
However, judging from Gongsun Zhan's cousin in Youzhou, Yang Rui, as a player, deserves to be treated separately from other princes.
Gongsun Zhan's introduction to Xianbei's situation was also recognized by the five newly surrendered generals of Nanlou, Su Muyan, Wuyan, Louban, and Nengchen, and their familiarity with Xianbei was also not low.
At least a few people in Nanlou are very familiar with the situation in the eastern branch of Xianbei, and even some of the sites are close together.
Yang Rui, Gongsun Zan and other generals from both sides discussed the situation of Xianbei in the small room of the Sky City, and about half an hour passed. The city in the sky soon came to the area where the Xianbei people gathered.
After analyzing the situation of the various ethnic groups in Xianbei, everyone had already set measures to conquer Xianbei, and at this time, when they reached the sphere of influence of Xianbei, Yang Rui immediately gave priority to the cavalry among the allied forces in Sky City.
The result of everyone's discussion was to start with Xianbei in the east, which was closest to Liaoxi, and take advantage of the excitement of Sky City to clean up a small group when they encountered one.
There are tens of thousands of Xianbei people in this place in front of him, and it is also a medium-sized Xianbei group in the east, so Yang Ruicai released all the generals and cavalry troops in order to clear the Xianbei gathering place as quickly as possible.
"Gotcha! Get! Get! ”
"Sigh the law of the law ......"
“……”
The allied cavalry rushed towards the Xianbei gathering place like a gust of wind, and all that could be heard was the sound of horses' hooves and the neighing of horses.
Among the soldiers of Yang Rui's army, nearly 50,000 heavy cavalry were carried. The number of cavalry in Gongsun Zhan's army even exceeded 100,000, and at this time, the cavalry of the two armies was combined into one, plus many generals, and it was naturally not a problem to sweep away a scattered Xianbei gathering place.
"Kill ......"
"Crack! Yes! ”
"Sigh the law ......"
“……”
Until Yang Rui and Gongsun Zhan's cavalry rushed into the living area of the Xianbei gathering point. His people were stunned to realize.
However, as a nomadic people, Xianbei is also very fierce, and in a hurry, many people picked up the weapons they could touch and resisted desperately, including some old people and children!
Before attacking Xianbei's residence, Yang Rui had mentioned that he would only attack the opponent's combat-ready soldiers. However, they were opposed several times by Gongsun Zhan, and it seems that as he said, unless these nomads are defeated or surrendered en masse, everyone can exert their fighting power.
Rao is like this, and in the end, Yang Rui did not adopt Gongsun Zhan's unforgiving Jianyi, and ordered all soldiers to avoid killing ordinary Xianbei NPCs as much as possible during the assault, after all, even if ordinary NPCs are armed, their combat effectiveness is very limited.
If they encounter such a desperate resistance as in front of them, it will be a different matter, although Yang Rui still gives the order to make the other party lose their combat effectiveness, but in the face of a large group of cavalry, it is difficult for them to survive just the trampling of horses.
Yang Rui didn't think anything about this, either the enemy died on the battlefield or I died, where is it possible to take care of others, Yang Rui has experienced many battles, of course he is very clear about this.
Moreover, Xianbei has not plundered the Han region, and similar situations must have happened more than once, so let them also taste the taste of being trampled on at this time!
Therefore, when Gongsun Zan was allowed to be plundered by the soldiers, Yang Rui did not have any objections and directly chose to acquiesce.
Seeing that the general trend had gone, the king of the Xianbei tribe there finally sent a surrender signal "in time", and Yang Rui also agreed to the other party's request to surrender, which can be regarded as saving some of the clansmen.
After a meal, the combined forces of Yang Rui and Gongsun Zan had already cleaned up the battlefield and embarked on the journey to the next Xianbei stronghold again. (To be continued.) )
